Episode 200 – KDA? Big! (2)
Late at night, Lightgames Korea channel.
“Well, with this final match, all four group matches have ended.”
The Wanggeom caster cleared his throat lightly. Although the matches between Group C and Group D had finished, it was not time to end the broadcast.
“As expected, it was Don Damas. It was a match that made me say this on its own. They were the champions from last year, and they looked like strong contenders for the title, right?”
“Yes. This season is exactly as you said, Wanggeom. It’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s truly the best of all time.”
“That’s right! No, how can there be two winning teams? The quality of this tournament is no joke!”
Don Damas' team also won all their matches, just like the Purge Day team.
-Really lol this season is really crazy
-You're saying Wang Myeong-su's joke isn't a joke?
-Don Damas' teamwork is awesome lol
-Blood is thicker than water, that's what they say.
-The final angle of Fuzzy Day and Don Damas has appeared ㅋㅋㅋ
-(A) Family-like company VS Real family
-Please take out the parentheses!
The viewers also agreed with what the commentators said. But that didn't mean they were on the same level.
-But if you think about it, isn't Purge Day more awesome?
-Really lol Group A and Group D of Death are a bit different in class
-King Jikji Don Damas is a bit easier to deal with.
-But wouldn't it have been a victory if Don Damas was in Group A? This is a bit difficult to answer easily.
-Ah haha anyway, it's decided in the finals!
In terms of composition, Don Damas had an easier time. While the viewers were arguing about it, the screen changed.
“Congratulations to all four teams that made it to the playoffs. Now the brackets have been decided. Normally, the 1st and 3rd places would play in the semifinals, and the 2nd and 4th places would play in the semifinals.”
“Oh, but this time the situation is a little different. 3rd and 4th place are definitely divided, but 1st and 2nd place are the problem.”
“Yes, that’s right. Group A’s Purge Day and Group D’s Don Damas, as I said earlier, both teams are undefeated. That means they’re tied.”
The 3rd and 4th places on each side were immediately filled. However, the 1st and 2nd places were vacant.
“Yes. In fact, this is not a common case, but we at Light Games have prepared for it, right?”
“Yes. According to the existing rules, in case of a tie, the winner is determined by comparing KDA. I am currently calculating the KDA of the Don Damas team.”
“It won’t take that long… Ah, it’s coming out now!”
The screen changed and the average KDA of both teams was displayed.
[Purge Day – 5.71]
[Don Damas – 6.38]
The commentators immediately sighed.
“Ah! Don Damas is a little higher!”
“Of course, this KDA is not a criterion for judging the skill of the two teams. Because the two teams’ opponents are different?”
“Yes, that’s right. I’d like to reiterate that KDA is a reference indicator, not an absolute standard.”
-King Jikji Don Damas easily gets kills and assists lol
-To really compare accurately, you have to play against the same team.
-No way lol Just stick together!
-I guess there's nothing we can do right now because we have to decide on 1st and 2nd place.
-With this, Don Damas will rise to first place? Evande… …
-Are you sure you calculated that correctly?
-Is it because it's average? Was it that low?
The chat window was filled with an atmosphere that was hard to accept. Wanggeom quickly responded.
“Both teams are great, but according to the tournament rules, 1st and 2nd place have to be decided and moved on. So according to the KDA score, Don Damas should be ranked first.”
As he spoke, he quickly opened his eyes and checked the message that had arrived.
“But! This time, there was a variable that no one expected?”
As Wanggeom quickly changed his words, the commentators quickly agreed. They too had confirmed the newly arrived message.
“Yes, that’s right! There are some people who are not included in the KDA score calculation you’re looking at now!”
“Wow, this is really! This is really an incredible record. It’s unmeasurable, because the KDA score of Purple, who recorded 0 deaths in the previous game, was not added up!”
Lee Kyung-bok's score was not calculated as a number. Therefore, it was not included in the average calculation.
“How can this amazing record not be reflected? Priceless, in English, it means priceless. It means it is extremely valuable.”
“Oh, you’re studying English words here again?”
“As expected of Wanggeom, who is aiming for global expansion!”
“Of course it’s a joke. But actually, this record is calculated by our judgment at Light Games as the difference in KDA between the two teams! It’s calculated to be higher than exactly 0.67.”
Now that the decision had been made by the organizers, Wanggeom could speak with certainty.
“Accordingly, 1st place goes to the Fuzzy Day Team! 2nd place goes to the Don Damas Team!”
The screen changed and the brackets were filled in. Along with that, the atmosphere in the chat window changed completely from before.
-Ah haha this is it! This is it!
-It's Right Games after all!
-Make sure to enter your nickname lol
-If it's a perfect score, it's just a landslide victory ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Oh lol, isn't this ranking going to end like this?
-Ah, why are you including it?
-What's with the match schedule spoiler? Lol
-Is this scientific reasoning according to the upper formula?

Wanggeom, who was relieved by the viewers' reaction, continued the show in a relaxed voice.
“Okay, so all the schedules for the playoffs are finished. We will take a day off to ensure a fair match and come back in two days.”
“But it’s not just resting, right?”
“Oh, that can’t be possible. Tomorrow is such an important day, isn’t it?”
Wanggeom responded to the commentators' comments with an even more powerful voice.
“That’s right! A big event that those who love the Mystic League can’t miss! The MCK finals are tomorrow! It’s tomorrow!”
“Yes. You absolutely have to see this! You absolutely have to see it live!”
“Tier One and Dandy, Dandy and Tier One! Who will be the winning team?!”
As it was an official amateur competition, it was natural to promote the professional league.
“The MCK finals will be held tomorrow! Please show lots of interest!”
“See you again in the playoffs!”
"thank you!"
The credits rolled along with greetings from three people.
-Ah haha of course I have to watch MCK too
-How did you endure the finals? LOL
-I originally watched all of Crazy Smurfs and watched MCK ㅋㅋㅋ
-Really lol it was just a bonus
-But this time, things are different.
Originally, Crazy Smurf was meant to appease the regret after MCK. But this time, it was different.
-I can't stand either of them!
-Honestly, this MCK and Crazy Smurf are both legendary ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Best season ever ㅁㅊㄷㅁㅊㅇ
It was a season that was hard to miss.

The next day, the day of the MCK finals.
Lee Kyung-bok and Elephant were training as usual. However, it was not the usual time.
“Please do it one more time!”
"All right."
It was a crucial time before the finals. I couldn't finish training in 10 minutes like before.
The training time had already exceeded an hour.
“The movements don’t have to be big. Mystic’s damage calculation isn’t determined by strength.”
"yes!"
“Focus on speed, feeling like you’re throwing a jab rather than a hook.”
"yes!"
Lee Kyung-bok also did not simply end with a fight, but gave more detailed coaching. Elephant stored each piece of advice in his head.
And finally, the training is over.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
"Thank you for your effort."
Since Elephant had to prepare more than just skills, he couldn't train until the game.
I had to discuss strategies with coach Baek Kang-min and the team members, and I also needed to get my mentality in order.
“I’m doing well enough.”
Lee Kyung-bok encouraged him.
“Compared to when I first started, I’ve become a completely different person.”
"thank you."
The elephant bowed deeply at those words, which were delivered with a smile.
“I’ve received so much help, so I’d be embarrassed if I didn’t win.”
"hmm……"
Lee Gyeong-bok looked at him for a moment and then added a word.
“I believe that the teacher will take good care of your mental health. However, there is one thing I want to tell you.”
"yes?"
“When doing something, it is better to think, ‘I will enjoy it if I do it,’ rather than thinking, ‘I have to do it.’”
It was a story about Lee Gyeong-bok’s own mindset.
“Don’t put chains on yourself.”
The elephant blinked a few times at those words, but soon smiled with a much more relaxed expression.
“Yes, that would certainly be better. Then I should say it this way.”
"yes?"
“No matter what the outcome of this final, I’ll be happy to repay Purple.”
A laugh escaped Lee Kyung-bok's mouth.
“No, I didn’t expect anything in return. I had fun, so you don’t have to.”
“It’s not just me.”
Lee Kyung-bok's eyes widened at the reply he received.
“My teammates, coaches, and Coach Baek are all grateful to Purple. This isn’t something I can handle alone.”
“It’s not that big of a deal…”
Lee Kyung-bok let out an awkward laugh at his strong expression of intent. It seemed like it wouldn't end until he received something.
'But is there anything I can do to get help from Tier One?'
It was a bit awkward to return something like money or a gift. It felt like a return on his kindness.
'Hmm? By any chance… … ?'
Suddenly, a thought occurred to him: Why not return a favor with a favor?
“Then how about something like this?”
"yes?"
Elephant's face brightened as Lee Kyung-bok relayed the thoughts that had occurred to him.
“I think our team members will enjoy this. I think the coach will like it too.”
“Yes, yes. I don’t think Light Games will refuse either.”
The two people laughed brightly.

That night, the MCK finals.
The match between Tier One and Dandy continued into the final 5th set. And now it has reached its conclusion.
“Both teams are out of elemental buffs! And they don’t have many skills either!”
“Ahhhhh! There’s no more chance now! Tier One, if you keep going like this, you’ll get pushed out!”
“Elephant Player! There’s no place to retreat now! If we lose this fight, it’s over!”
As it was the finals, the commentators' tension was at its peak. They shouted at the top of their lungs.
“Is this the end!? Will Dandy take the championship trophy!?”
“Dandy! We’re heading for the trophy! It’s right in front of us!”
“The supporter can’t hold out and falls! But it’s too late! It’s 4:5! The balance is falling aaaaaaa!”
Tier One's thirteenth.
The cheers of the Tier One fans who came to the scene were buried under the cheers of the Dandy fans.
But at that very moment.
“Elephant Player! I took off my claws!”
“Ultimate! I’m using the ultimate! The continuous trap prayerooooooong!”
“This is your last chance! You have to give it your all!”
The elephant used its ultimate and jumped into the enemy camp. The balance was disturbed again.
“Awesome! I’m dodging all the attacks!”
“Wow! What the heck is going on!? This isn’t the Elephant player I’ve seen before!”
“This isn’t a slump overcoming level! This is transcendence! Transcendence! Elephant player has surpassed his past heyday!”
The subject of the shout has changed.
Tears welled up in the eyes of Tier One fans. The emotions boiling deep in their hearts foreshadowed the outcome of the match.
“Triple keyeeeeeeeeel!”
“The tables have turned! Dandy missed his chance to escape!”
“We’re going straight to the main camp! Tier One! We won’t give up our chance to win!”
Champions in red chroma, wearing Tier One uniforms, rushed towards the main base.
“It’s going to explode! It’s going to explode! Tier One did it aaaaaaaaaa!”
“The Goddess of Victory has completely turned around! Her smile is directed towards Tier One!”
“The last 5 sets of the MCK finals! In the end, Tier One will take home the championship trophy!”
The final victory went to Tier One.
As the game ended, the five team members emerged from the capsule and cheered. The cheers and applause of the fans filled the stadium.
Soon, the players from both teams shook hands, and the championship trophy was placed in front of the Tier One members.
Without anyone saying anything, they were the first to give the trophy to Elephant.
“Elephant Player! Raise the championship trophy high!”
“The strongest jungler, the strongest creature in the jungle! The elephant is back!”
The commentators also finished with a lingering emotion and a sad voice. In the meantime, caster Jeong So-yoon came down to the stage.
She waited a moment and then conducted the winning interview.
After finishing the interviews for each player, it was finally Elephant's turn.
“Player Elephant, you are clearly the star of this victory. Please tell us your thoughts.”
“Oh, yes.”
Elephant grabbed the microphone and looked at the camera. No words came out right away.
He took a quick breath and looked back at his teammates.
“First of all, my team members who trusted and followed my orders.”
Then his gaze turned towards Director Baek Kang-min and the coaching staff.
“And I would like to thank the manager and coaches who believed in me more than I did during my slump.”
Baek Kang-min smiled broadly and gave a thumbs up. But Elephant wasn't finished talking yet.
“More than anything, thank you for saving me from a slump and a swamp.”
He looked back at the camera again.
“I would like to give this honor to streamer Purple.”
With those words, the team members behind him nodded and applauded. This was because they also knew of Lee Kyung-bok's efforts.
“Oh, you said you received help during the opening interview. Did you continue to receive help after that?”
“Yes, you have been a great help to me up until this morning. Purple, you also had an important competition coming up, and you were happy to help me out.”
The elephant looked back at the commentator as if it had forgotten something.
“Oh, and the title of the best jungler is too much for me. Please call me that after I surpass Purple, who I coached.”
At those words, laughter erupted in the room. It seemed that they thought he was joking.
“MCK has ended like this, but please show lots of interest in the competition Purple is participating in, Crazy Smurf. Oh, I talked too much.”
Elephant put down the microphone with an embarrassed expression. Jeong So-yoon smiled brightly next to him.
“No, no. It’s okay. I feel more comfortable. Elephant player even said all my comments.”
It was originally her job to announce the Crazy Smurf Contest. This brought laughter to the hall once again.
After wrapping up the interview, the casters and commentators said their goodbyes.
Along with that, the outro began to appear on the broadcast screen.
-Wow lol that was a really great game
-What is this that makes me cry? LOL
-They say that as you get older, your tear glands get weaker?
-Hey, old man… …
-And so another MCK season ends.
The chat window was filled with viewers lost in thought.
-But tomorrow, Crazy Smurf will do it.
-An amateur competition promoted by a pro is coming soon!?
-Really lol I didn't know elephants could talk
-Are you sure the barrier to regret is secure?
-Really lol Light Games is smart
-Thank goodness there's a crazy smurf lol
The viewers easily overcame their disappointment. Although it was an amateur competition, there were still Mystic League competitions left.
-It's a good thing there's a Godple and not a crazy smurf, lol
-In fact, didn't MCK start and end with Godflow?
-Oh lol, that's right lol
-Smer, who appeared in the MCK opening match and final match, is coming soon!?
-If there was no Godple, Elephant wouldn't have been able to return.
-Really lol Elephant also got a purple coin properly
And this time, the Crazy Smurf Contest.
-Did you only ride the elephant? You rode the light games too, lol
-Really ㅋㅋ If you look at the headquarters providing the relay channel, you'll get the answer
-Honestly, who's looking forward to the Mad Smurf finals as much as today? Raise your hand!
-What is it? Are you checking my Korean nationality?
-Ah haha, if you're Korean, you can't help but have expectations haha
-If you're Korean, please watch the Mad Smurf finals!
It was expected to receive just as much attention as MCK.
